The Alleged Feats or the A.3aelen.t Archers— Mahritond shot. From their perishable nature the bow and arrow shale have utterly disappeared, but the arrow -head has come down to us by thousands in the river drift and cave de- posits which experts place at a hundred thousand years ago. With this our very remote ancestors used to slay the mam- moth, the woolly rhinoceros and the rein- deer—animate whose like our sportsmen of to.day pursue with express rifles and ex- plosive bullets. In due time the bow be- came a finished weapon, and savage men grew to use it with great skill both in hu nting and ha war. The bowman's prowess however, was not so great as it has been represeueed by writers of fiction, and there is little doubt that just as the runner or the boxer of to -day could beat the athlete Qi antiquity, to the bowmen even of these days, when shooting ie but a pastime, (mule easily beat the redskin or the Afri- can in feats of skill. 11 is at the target, however, that he would excel, not in the forest, for his woodcraft would not enable him to get the opportunity of drawing his bow. Neither savage nor modern toxophilite, however, can hope to come up to the recori of Mahmoud Effendi, secretary to the Turkish ambassabor in England in 1795, who, with a Turkish bow, shot arearrow 482 yards in the presence of three members of the Toxophilite society. Before such a range as this it is not so surprising to be told of an arrow that pierced two inches of brass, or of another that, being shot by a Welsh, archer at au armed man on horse - beak, struck him on the thigh, pierced his armor, his leg, Ins leather saddle, and kill- ed his horse. • t The how zed arrow was at its height at the battle of Flodden in 1513, when the Scots yielded before the shower of shafts which the bowmen pouted upon them, but already the knell of the fine old arms had sounded. In 1511 Lord Hubert of Cher - bury, in discussing a war with Preece, epealts of the change of weapons, and when once the " handgunners ' and " gun- powder " came into use the craft of bowyer and the valor of bowmen became obeo- lete.

At last a howl from that muck injured animal recalls him to the present, and slowly rising he crossed to the window, where he stands pulling his long mous- tache. At length he breaks the silence. "When does her ladyship arrive ?" "To -morrow on the 4 p.m.." answers Aunt Clarissa. "Such being the case I shall depare on the 6 a.m." "What !" she cried, staring at him in amazement. "I mean to say, most emphatically, that whet I select a wife I shall do to without any other aid." Next morning, bright and early, Aunt Clarissa is up, and upon going out into the hall, perceives Philip's luggage whibh Tho- mas has just brought down. "So he is really going,' she says to her- self. "Ungrateful fellow ! I wonder if he,is t going back to the city this hot weather ?" and stooping down she lifts the placard at- tached and reads the directions written thereon. "Well, well, my fine fellow, and you would outwit your old auntie, would you! We shall see! We shall see! * * 4t * * * * "Good morning, Uncle Calvin! Mending nets, I see. Shall you need your boat this morning!" says a sweet, musical voice. The soaker is a tall, fair-haired girl, at. tired in a dark blue dress of serge, that is made in severe simplicity, and clinging about her, brings cam the perfect lines of her form. Up tn her head she wean a dainty etraw hat, which appendage is fastened by a • broad blue ribbon that is Teemed under iter chin, and is tied in a very coquettish little bow upon the side. The old fishermanwettieg so quietly mend- ing his nets for to -morrow's haul, looke up as she addreseez him, while a genial smile spreads over his broad, good-humored face. • "And it's my boat as you wants, is it ? Why, you be welcome to it. Take it, lassie, and use it as long as ye likes." "Many thanks, Uncle Calvin," she an- swers, and walks down the beach with a swift, even step. She stoope, o.ncl loosening a, einy boot moored near, steps in, and with a firm, regular stroke pushes far out over the dark blue waves. "A bonny less she be," muses Uncle Calvin, as he mita:ilea the boat, with its fair occupant, &doing over the waves. " A. bonny lass, with her gentle, kindly ways. Why, the teddies from the hotel, that walks up and down the beach of an evening, canna hold a candle to her." Some of the ladies he mentioned are sit- ting further up the beach, idly watching the girl's departure. Some gentlemen are lounging near ever and anon taking part in their convereation. "Olz, horrors I " exclaimed one young lady, pointing at the girre fast retreating figure. "Do look at that girl alone nem the water I flow can she?

"There'sgoing to be a hettey storm, 1 fear," he thinks, when suddenly he remain - hers that the girl who so lately sailed away in her frail omit has not yet returned. No, certainly she has not, for from his point of view he would have seen her. With a suaden resolve, he starts down, and walking briskly, is soon beside the boathouse. Securing a boat, he jumps in and pushes oft The storrn now raged in all its fury. Time wind is blowing a.gainet the waves, dashing their* so high that the boat rocked from side to aide, rendering it almost be- yond his control; but summoning all hie etreugth he bends to the oars.

I was sound asleep until the storm broke, and awoke to find thee young man bringing ye in," with a forefinger pointing m the direction of Mr. Eversleigh, who had stepped beyond her rage at vi Rising to her feet she looks at him, while a burning flush spreads over her face, that was so white a; moment before. Coming forward the young mau takes off his hat and assures her in his most winning manner that he is happy to have been of service to her. His offer to assist her home she thankfully accepted, and together they wend their way across the sands. At length she stops before a pretty white cottage, and as she bids him adieu, laugh- ingly gives him her promise not to venture alone upon the water another thn.e. "For, " she concluded, "a second time, probably, no gallant knight would. be ready to rescue me from a watery grave." After that many long days—delightful days—are spent by these two in each other's society. This girl, so artless and simple, so unanected and altogether charm- ing, is so different from the average young ladies that Mr. Eversleigh has met, that he falls in love with her—deeply, passion- ately in love. So, one day, under the bewitching spells of her lustrous eyes, he repeats the old, old story, and finds that he sues not in ram. * * * Sitting in the dim light of the cottage parlor is Mr. Eversleigh, when the door opens and two persons mater. One he knows is his betrothed—but the other? As they come closer he springs to his feet. "Aunt Clarissa!" "The same, Philip." And then the light breaks upon him. Three months later Philip Eversleigh and his wife stand before the library window at Aunt Clarissa's home. Philip looks down into the lovely face at his side, and says teasingly : "I might just as well have stayed here, little evomen, for it seems you two were determined to entrap me, after all." me BRINGS Els O'WN 8/CIFE BESIDE IT.

There is no longer any mete disputing th extra value of fall calves for raising. And they constitute one of their chief souroes of profit to the butter dairyman,who has his skim milk and raises his own oows, Anely bred. It is no wonder that such wise men estimate the value of skim milk at one cent per quart. And they have learned how to employ it to the best advantage. "I always feed it with bran," says one. But bran alone would not do, although it is essential to rapid growth betanuie of ite bone producing elements. A little flaxseed properly prepared, returns to the milk a, part of the fat removed by skimming, and keeps the bowels in order. Boil it in six times its bulk of water for 20 minutes, cm until it makes a jelly. Two tablespoonful"; of this jelly placed in each gallon of milk fed the calves with a handful or two of bran according to the age of the calf, willmake large, sleek, choice animals. Too much bran fed to very young calves is not desirable. There is no comparison be- tween fall calves carefully reared in the barn in this way for the first six months, and spring calves turned out to battle with flies inside of two 'months after birth. The evidence is wholly in favor of the fall calves. And it is surprisiug how soon they begin to eat hay. Give them the Lest early out Many are beginning to find a similar course eatisfactore for veal produc- tion, slightly increasing the jelly With full rations of milit, but not enough to cloy the appetite. Some feed a little corn meal in con'unction with the ration when fattening veal. This must be used judiciously—not more than half a pint at a meal to the old- est, biggest calves. Such veal at this season and until veal begins to be low in price will sell as readily and for as =oh money as veal fattened on expensive butter fats. Look out for well.bred heifer calves.

The curd ought to be fit to cut in 45 minutes, then let it remain till the whey rises between the cuts. It manilas 30 minutes to be slowly but thoroughly broken to about the size of a pea. In cold, clear weather a gallon or more of werm sour whey is necessary, similar to that used with rennet.

Professor Preyer, who has carefully worked on a single subject (a boy of his own), considers that though sensibility to light exists from the moment of birth, yet this sensibility is more alive to the sense of feeling than to that of sight. The infant from the first closed its eyes when exposed to a strong light. With regard to actual sight, as denoted by the fixing of the eyes on objects, Preyer says that upto the tenth day he noticed no movements indicating that the child fixed its eyes on an object. ilte seemed only to look ae objects before him up to that time. Other authorities as- sert that in this letter respect infants differ greatly. This much, however, is clear that it usually requires between two and three weeks for the sense of hight to come into full operation. Chinese Good for Something.
